the truth

prayersfor

it was amazing

that one could just write down some

thoughts and call it truth


the truth of the moment

this moment in time I

will say how it lives


the life of the world

not mine, not made by me a

piece of ongoing


expressions  of life,

joy, sad, hope, blue, change brings new

faces of more hues


unsung, and repeated

again my truth will just  

blend, bend, send, pretend


will it arrive at

the end?  of something amazing

to find and appraise


what is best, no

contesting with any more

life forms.  much needed rest
